Not only do I value Willie as a trusted advisor but I also am honored to count him among a close-knit group of people otherwise known as friends. I have called upon Willie Brake on many occasions over the last few years while suffering a crisis or two with my laptop. He has never failed to take my call and to give me great advice, even if it meant that he didn't make a dollar on the conversation. He's a consummate professional.
